Nana

My name is Emily LaVelle (Warner) Ulmer. I am named after my Grandmothers. I have been thinking so much about my Nana (mom's mom LaVelle) over the past month or so. I think I think about her when I think "what would I do with out my mom". My mother is the most amazing women, she can fix anything, she teaches, she knows so much...she sings beautifully. She creates, she loves our Savior and she is the greatest example I have of love, compassion and motherhood!! I know that she got those qualities from her mother and I can only hope to someday be half the woman these women are. There was nothing more important to Nana then her family...and especially her grandchildren (I always like to think that I was her favorite!!) When I think of her I think of LOVE. Love that you can feel almost smell and touch!! I remember the day I had Logan, it was hectic and amazing. I remember right before I went to sleep that first night, that he had just left her and I wanted to hold him so that I could feel her!

This is Tim, me, Nana and Chelsea. She has been gone for 22 years and I am grateful everyday that I knew her.

My mom gave us all this picture for Christmas....how beautiful is she!! LOVE!
